Publisher Description
Dreams of stardom had lured Martyn Tarne from faraway New Zealand to make the dreary, soul-destroying round of West End agents and managers in search of work. The Vulcan Theatre had been her last forlorn hope, and now, driven by sheer necessity, she was glad to accept the humble job of dresser to its leading lady. And then came the eagerly awaited Opening Night. To Martyn the night brought a strange turn of the wheel of fortune - but to one distinguished member of the cast it was to bring sudden and unforeseen death...
Opening Night was first published in 1951.

One issue
Great narration and mystery. Some of the characters felt a bit flat, especially one of them who is involved in the “issue,” but others were interesting and pleasant to listen to. To try not to spoil, there is a romantic relationship that I just could not get behind, even adjusting for the cultural mores of the day. I was genuinely hoping one of the characters ended up being the murderer by about 2/3rds of the way through just cause I was weirded out by the relationship. Other than that, I enjoyed the book.
